Clearly the company took suggestions, prior version reviews, and design feature ideas to heart. This is a functional and appealing bag set. Thanks for sharing!
@@PrepMedic I absolutely love your reviews and channel. Your videos are thorough, you're clear/concise, you describe and answer what we're typically thinking about, toss in your own experiences, honest opinions/thoughts or concerns, etc. Its a valuable resource for us watching whether buying for ourselves, knowing others that would need it (so pass the info along), or just learning something we didn't know. Thanks!
Never heard that before. PM said it. I'd hate to get your reaction to the cost of medical supplies. It's worse where I am. I live in Canada. Prices are nuts up here.
It covers Ruck & Truck concepts of both PFC and DECM concepts very well. Used this for a while after I went through a DECM course. Ended up moving to a Delta from Spirtus Systems. That said, this set up allows everything to be easily kept together. Especially for Mechanized/ people that have vehicle access. I moved away from it as it’s just entirely to damn big. Gave it to my PA who fell in love with it for obvious reasons. I think Mattblock and Cromedical have some of the best modernized bags out there. That said, price as obviously mentioned below in this comment sections going to turn people away for personal purchase.
Just purchased a Tasmanian Tiger S assault bag. Planning to outfit it as a BLS bag for my rescue work. Would like to see a video on your version of that bag in a BLS configuration.
The term for the proper type of infrared signature reduction is NIR near-Infrared, not "Nearly" IR, NIR is what you want in clothing and equipment to assist in blending in under NODs
Hey, Sam. I’ve been watching your videos for a while (part of why I’m going down the paramedic rabbit hole) and I have a shooting competition that I’m volunteering for first aid in. For purposes of training, I’m between EMT-B and EMT-A (instructor said we’re basically low-functioning Primary Care Paramedics after the lengthened scope of practice course). While most of the contestants (in armoured division) are required to carry an IFAK on their person, it seems that proper jump kits aren’t provided. Other than bleeds/chest seals, should I provide basic diagnostic tools (Steth and BP cuff I already have, but thinking of pulse ox, glucometer, and especially a thermometer because heat exhaustion is going to be a concern with temps at 39C) and some other supplies, or just go with what I have? In addition, something I’m thinking of getting is surplus bedsheets to soak in ice water in case of severe heat exhaustion. Am I going too far into Ricky Rescue territory? Eventually, I plan on having a kit in case of MVAs. I’ll be driving a lot of highways when I get licensed-I might be posted in a rural location.
@prepmedic do you think it would work for a search & rescue team i do all the bls medical for the team and i need a good pack do you think it would work for that type of setting
It would work amazingly for a SAR pack. That being said if you are purely carrying BLS supplies there are probably cheaper/smaller options that will fit the bill
@MATBOCK I'm sorry I'm sure it's a fantastically made item but it's still not worth 2200. At the end of the day you can buy other packs for the same job and do just fine. This isn't necessary nor logical for that price.
@@Brittanyslife13 There are other packs, and they are good packs; however, none have the versatility, are as light and as durable. These are not our words but our customers who repeatedly buy these packs to replace those other packs. The GRAM is one of our top-selling products, but at the end of the day, if you don't think it's worth the money, there is nothing we can say or do to change that. Best of luck and thanks for checking it out. We hope whatever packs you use work great for you!
@@MATBOCK, I‘m a Tool Development Engineer and have an idea how a product comes to a certain price. And I’m a consumer that always tries to get products that will completely fulfil their function and last for long. But I can understand why so many question the price for this product as to high. The little thing that is really “priceless” is that you as a company came to the comment section and calmly and respectfully explained. Big kudos for that. 👌
@@MATBOCK it's just the one I have right now, I sewed my own belt kit and everything plays off of that in a line system. The matbock stuff is awesome super cool though and definitely inspired a lot of the thought behind the stuff I made for myself. If I had the coin I'd have just got the matbock bags.
Why didn't you include the price?. I saw the comment of another person at 2200 bucks! Medical + military= expensive. Its a nice review and I appreciate the info. Why do things only get reviewed if its super expensive? How about the rest of us who need gear and are on a budget?
I have tons of videos of budget options including a video I did last week that discusses how to help people without spending any money. As I say in the video, this kit isn’t for just anyone to buy. It’s for government buyers and specialized medical teams.
That Medic Bag is a work of art! 😲😲
They did a good job!

Suggestions and also, all of them have done the job.

2,200 dollars… ya, I’d send it back after the review too. Good thing people in EMS are known as some of the wealthiest people in the world. 😂
This isn't for EMS or even personal use, its for SOF/LE medics or GOV buyers
@@HUNTER-ve3iwoh, so that’s where my tax money is going.
I've got crapper seats for sale!😂😂😂
lol don’t look at what actual medical supplies and equipment costs. Hell, one Zoll x series is 25k.

you’re literally my comfort person i love you kislux !
That's why you showed me this? Now I dream about it. 😢
That bag and company is pretty awesome!
Much appreciated it.

Thanks for clarifying! I wasn’t aware that NIR was an official classification
@PrepMedic at one point I was ordering fabric by the roll in god's plaid 20 something years ago
The hole you talk about at 13:50 we use them to keep our fluid running while having our hands when moving an patient from a to b
Can you make a video about what you would put in this PFC pack?
Speaking as a former Army medic, it's a neat concept.
Appreciate it!
Thank you. Great product review. I got some great ideas 💡 to customize my gear.
We do make individual components if you need something to enhance your set up.
Nice medic backpack
Appreciate it
This is a really well thought out pack and design. Definitely made for people with a higher skill level than me. Lol
I'm not sure about the American military, but the birtish army has been trained for prolonged field care for a long time.
Nearly IR compliant, or Near IR compliant? NIR compliant means it IS rated.

Fantastic. Price tho..
Let us know if your unit wants to demo one, and you will immediately see the value in the system.
Hey i wanted to ask you if you could check out the golden hour bag of black trident and you have more experience in Medic Bags than i have
Hi Sam how was your day like?
$2200.00 dollars and it comes empty 😢😮😮😮
$2,200 is with a $600 military frame and all the internal pouches

This pack is pretty specifically designed for SOF medics and other government buyers. It’s not for a private buyer

Would make a great go-bag or 72hr bag.
It would definitely make a good go bag if it wasn’t for the price. I honestly don’t think this is a viable option for self purchase

He's got a literal video on how to make an IFAK on the cheap.
LOL, advanced? the most complicated!
Only complex while you are setting it up and it’s all in the name of customization to meet very specific mission sets.
